The care of your teeth and gums plays a big part in your overall health. When you have dental health issues, it’s important to get help right away.

TeleDentistry.com can connect you with a dentist over the phone. After your virtual visit, they can send your regular dentist a report about your virtual visit. If you don’t already have a dentist, they can help you find an in-network dentist if you need follow-up care. Visit TeleDentistry.com or call to request your virtual dental visit.
